Chapter 193 – Second Aunt’s Fraudulent Death (Second Shift) (1 / 2)

“That’s you ah only so big point, how to favor the fifth prince it” Qi also do not know how, this day suddenly remembered Mu Zi Yan childhood things to, seems to have opened the box like talking non-stop.

Mu Zi Yan sighed helplessly, “Mother, daughter indeed cannot remember.”

“It’s true that I can’t remember anything from the age of three.” Only then did Qi come back to her senses and responded in a low voice, pondering for a moment before saying, “Yes, Smokey, I remember that your grandfather seemed to have invited the Fifth Prince to the attic back then.”

“Oh,” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light, “It seems that there are secrets in this attic.”

“Not really.” Qi whispered, “The old madam has never been inside, just heard that there is a treasure placed there, but also set up rules, without your grandfather’s key, is not allowed to go in, but all trespassers will lose their lives, at that time there were a few bold thieves went in, all died.”

“I see.” Mu Zi Yan nodded slightly, she remembered that in her previous life, because she was in the family temple for three years, after she came out, she married Leng Hanfeng, so she forgot about the matter of the attic of the old mansion, until she died tragically, and she never thought about it again, and the Marquis of Mu never mentioned it either.

Only in this life, she was fortunate to go to the old mansion, and now she knows the mystery here, so this attic and grandfather left behind the corner of the town before the search can be related to the people

Mu Zi Yan has always felt that his past life lived too hastily, it seems that in addition to follow the footsteps of Leng Hanfeng step by step into the dead end, and then did not think of other things, she could not help but feel worthless and stupid for his past life, even if that time there is no longer a dependence, but can not be all the expectations are placed on a man who is false to you, and in order for him to fight to the death and counting into the heart of the machine, and even with the State House and her Lin’s son also followed the funeral. With the state government and her son also followed the burial, in the end, but in exchange for a miserable end, this thousand years, she in addition to hate there is regret, feel that their previous life is deserved, but at that time, she really had no choice.

Once was the marquis’s daughter, before the age of ten was highly favored, overnight, suffered the relatives one after another left, and finally was locked up in the family temple for three years, if there is no flute at the beginning of the period, there is the last Leng Hanfeng suddenly appeared to ask for warmth, she will not be on Leng Hanfeng that rely on, which is better than their own to the desperate situation, suddenly out of the first a beam of light, although I know that the light may be a blip, but she will be! Leng Hanfeng as a life-saving straw in general, confuse their own minds, even if later came to their senses, but it is already too late.

But Mu Zi Yan now rethink, but feel that everything has its own destiny, perhaps God let her through so many trials and tribulations, and then reborn, is to let her unravel the unanswered questions of the previous life.

That kind of game of chess, exactly who is playing chess, what is the final ending she has no way to know, this life, she is bound to find out exactly, than the ending of this life, the last life even if she does not know, perhaps she can also imagine.

She was silent for a moment, and raised her eyes to look at Qi, “Mother, why did you suddenly bring up my daughter’s childhood this day”

“It suddenly came to mind, so I mentioned it.” Qi said with a smile.

“In the future you can not say again, daughter since I do not remember, moreover, the fifth prince has also” Mu Zi Yan whispered.

“Yes, no more.” Qi said with a smile.

Mu Zi Yan since the Ji Yue courtyard out, they waited for Mu Lingxuan back, wanting to ask him what he saw when he broke into the attic

Straight until Mu Lingxuan returned, she could not wait to rush over, once a person has curiosity about something, they will lose their usual calmness.

When Mu Lingxuan saw Mu Ziyan come, his handsome jade-like features flashed a gentle smile, “What’s going on here”

“Brother.” Mu Zi Yan looked at him with a smile, “My sister has something to ask.”

“Oh,” Mu Lingxuan raised his eyebrows at her, “Tell me.”

“Does brother remember ever going to the attic of the old mansion” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and asked.

“En.” Mu Lingxuan to be mentioned attic, this face since the change, obviously for the things that happened at that time is still a little uncomfortable.

Seeing him like this, Mu Zi Yan lowered his voice, “Does brother still remember what he saw inside the attic”

“What is sister asking this for” Mu Lingxuan did not answer directly, but asked in return.

“I went to the old mansion this day.” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and said.

“What are you doing at the old mansion,” Mu Lingxuan asked in confusion.

“I’ve never been there since I grew up, so I went to have a look.” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile.

“The old mansion that now let the second uncle live, you go to see is also should be.” Mu Lingxuan said in a warm voice, “but that attic is not to go in, when I was young, sneak in, almost lost my life, if not grandfather alert will bring me out, I now where there is life sitting here”.

“It seems that there are organs laid within the attic,” Mu Zi Yan said as she looked at him.

“En.” Mu Lingxuan nodded his head and responded, “That organ was very strange, I but just stepped in and was hit.”

“Brother but saw what is inside the attic” Mu Zi Yan continued to ask.

“Rather, I didn’t find anything special.” Mu Lingxuan shook his head, “But I saw a sword.”

“Oh.” Mu Zi Yan was silent for a moment, and then asked, “Then did brother ever find anything else?”

“I think about it.” Mu Lingxuan was silent for a long time, his eyes slightly knitted, seemingly thinking back, and after a few moments said, “Right, there is a painting on the front, but it doesn’t look very real.”

“Brother, you wait.” Mu Zi Yan heard Mu Ling Xuan say so, quickly got up, then traveled to the front of the bookcase, spread out the rice paper, since the pen briefly sketched some, and then looked to the side of the Mu Ling Xuan, “Brother, but it’s so”

“Not bad, that’s it.” Mu Lingxuan nodded and responded.

Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “How could this happen”

“How did sister know about this painting” Mu Lingxuan asked as he looked at her.

“Brother.

The

“Brother, this matter is a long story, and I don’t know how to talk about it now, but this matter must not be mentioned to bystanders.” Mu Zi Yan looked at Mu Ling Xuan and said.

“Good.” Mu Lingxuan saw Mu Ziyan’s face condensed, thinking that this matter must be of great importance, so he nodded his head and responded.

Mu Zi Yan came out from Mu Ling Xuan’s courtyard, and when she returned to the Smoke Drop Courtyard, before she sat down, she saw Yun Xiang hurriedly walk in, “Eldest Miss, Elder Zhang asked you to go to the Jing Zhaoyin’s government office.”

“Now,” Mu Zi Yan stared blankly for a moment, thinking that something big must have happened at this time.

“Yes, I heard that a skeleton was dug up in the government office.” Rue Xiang whispered.

“You mean Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office” Mu Ziyan’s eyes narrowed slightly, obviously not expecting that skeletons would still be dug up in the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office.

“Exactly.” Yunxiang hung her head and responded, “This matter has alarmed the Emperor, and now the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office is even blocked.”

“How come the skeleton will suddenly be found” Mu Zi Yan narrowed her eyes, raised her steps and hurried out of the Mu Hou House.

When she arrived at the capital magistrate’s office, she saw that there were already guards outside, and she showed her identity before she was able to enter.

After Mu Zi Yan entered the back hall, she saw Zhang Zong and Niang Zi Lu standing in the hall with heavy faces at the moment.

“What’s going on,” Mu Zi Yan walked up and asked at once.

“This is also strange.” Zhang Zong looked at her and said, “There is a hillside in the backyard, and when it rained heavily some time ago, that hillside collapsed, so I ordered people to go ahead and fix it, but I didn’t expect to find a skeleton.”

“Checkable,” Mu Zi Yan asked, looking at him.

“According to your method last time, I have since restored the appearance.” Niangzi Lu looked at Mu Zi Yan and said, “But this person”

“What,” Muzzy Smoke asked, looking at her.

“Go see for yourself.” Zhang Zong said as he looked at her.

Mu Zi Yan saw these two people showing difficult colors, she then entered the autopsy room, when she saw that look, her eyes flashed with a ghostly light, “Who is this”

“I guess you don’t know, but someone else does.” Zhang Zong whispered.

Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at the State Duke’s wife who came afterward, and when the State Duke’s wife looked at it, she took a few steps backward on the spot.

“Great Aunt,” Mu Zi Yan looked at the State Duchess, her eyes flashing with a touch of doubt.

“Smoke girl, this is your second aunt how could she” Mrs. Guo Gong’s eyes overflowed with shock and doubt.

“What” Mu Zi Yan also followed the surprised, “the second aunt is not how will die here”

“That would be strange.” The State Duchess also found it unbelievable.

Zhang Zong looked at Mu Zi Yan, “This skeleton was not poisoned to death, it was injured by a concealed weapon, judging by the degree of corrosion of the bones it has been dead for fifteen years.”

“Fifteen years,” the Duchess of State counted the days, “should be seventeen.”

“If it is seventeen years then it is not the second aunt was not then dead” Mu Zi Yan eyes flashed a flash of surprise, turned his eyes to look at Mrs. State Duke, “Great Aunt, to know the truth, it must be to go to the second aunt’s tomb to the “

“But this is a great taboo.” The State Duchess said, looking at her.

“Now to find the truth, also can not care so much, if there is really something, I will bear it.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly, she will not be afraid of these, and on the spur of the moment, she led a trip to the ancestral tomb of the Qi family.

At that moment, they saw the second aunt’s grave, the State Duchess stood aside, Qi Xuan and Mu Ling Xuan also rushed over, now it is already evening, the sunlight has just dispersed, the sky has been dark, all the people propped up torches, Mu Zi Yan stood in front, the State Duchess personally went up to the incense, turned his eyes to look at her, “Smoke girl, is it really necessary to do so”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan answered in a deep voice, “Kai.”

“Yes.” There were already guards from the Qi family who came forward to start the grave with the magistrate.

After the coffin was carried out, Mrs. State Duke always showed concern, and when she walked up, Mu Zi Yan and Zhang Zong had already ordered people to push the coffin open, and when they saw that the inside was actually an empty grave, the crowd was astonished for a while.

“How can this be” Mrs. State Duke looked at Mu Zi Yan, “when I watched the burial, how could it be an empty grave?”

“It seems like that skeleton is really Second Auntie’s.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly.

“How could this be” Mrs. Guo Gong was stunned, turning her eyes to look at Mu Zi Yan and asked.

“Great aunt, let’s wait until we return to talk about this matter.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.

Qi Xuan stepped forward and looked at her, “Cousin, this matter is of great importance.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at him and nodded slightly, “Cousin, I still have something to say.”

“Good.” Qi Xuan nodded slightly, and the two of them left first.

When the two sat in the carriage, Mu Zi Yan looked at him and said, “Cousin, I went to the old mansion this day, there is an attic in the old mansion, it is a forbidden place, my brother unintentionally broke into the attic when he was a child, it was decorated with organs, and what was even more strange was that my brother saw a painting, the same as that of the head of the house of my second aunt.”

“What” Qi Xuan was surprised, to calm down, whispered, “how can this be”

“I also don’t know.” Mu Zi Yan lowered her eyes and said, “But now that second aunt was not poisoned and died in the first place, and now that the body is in the capital magistrate’s office, then what exactly has happened in the past two years”

“The second aunt is swindling her death,” Qi Xuan asked, looking at her.

“I don’t know, first of all, to make sure that the one who died is not really the second aunt, if it is true, then why the second aunt to fraudulent death” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and asked.

“Seventeen years ago, I was only two years old, I didn’t know the reason for this at all.” Qi Xuan shook his head.

“Too much time has passed.” Mu Zi Yan sighed, “Moreover, I always feel that this matter is too bizarre.”

“Cousin, how do you plan to investigate,” Qi Xuan asked as he looked at her.

“I don’t know.” Mu Zi Yan was also at a loss, now that all the clues had been broken, seventeen years had passed and too many things had happened.

“Difficult

“Could it be that this matter is related to Auntie Qiu” Qi Xuan asked after a moment of silence.

“I feel that this matter should be related to the person hiding behind the State Duke’s Mansion.” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and said.

“But now that this person doesn’t show up, there’s no way of knowing who he really is” Qi Xuan couldn’t help but get a little annoyed.

Mu Zi Yan was silent for a moment, then said, “Maybe this is an opportunity.”

“Opportunity” Qi Xuan looked at Mu Zi Yan, “Cousin means to use second aunt to draw out the black hand behind”

“Not bad.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and responded, “It depends on how to utilize it.”

“It seems like we need to carefully set things up.” Qi Xuan whispered.

“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded his head and responded, “First go back to the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office, cousin, great aunt’s place you and first go back to the house to pacify some, this news will definitely be spread into the state government, it is best to make the house known to everyone.”

“Good.” Qi Xuan nodded his head in response, raising his eyes to look at her, “Cousin, you should also be more careful.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan answered softly, then Qi Xuan got out of Mu Zi Yan’s carriage and went forward to the State Duke’s Mansion.

When they arrived at the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office, Mu Lingxuan was the first to come down, and Mu Ziyan then saw Su Qinrou and Hou Yi Yi, and the Chapter Staffer all rushed over.

She laughed lightly, “All here for the fun.”

“Yeah.” Commented the chapter with a smile.

Mu Zi Yan knew that they came from the front to be helpful, able to come at a difficult time, this sentiment is too precious for her.

“Sister Mu, is there anything we can do to help,” Su Qin Rou stepped forward and asked.

Mu Lingxuan stood at her side, “Come here.”

“Oh.” Su Qinrou raised her eyes to look at Mu Lingxuan and obediently took a step closer to him.

Mu Zi Yan looked at the pair in front of her, the corners of her mouth raised in a faint light smile, turning her eyes to look at Zhang Staffer, “Cousin Zhang, I have no clue about this matter, why don’t we all go in and talk about it.”

“Good.” Commenting on the chapter, he nodded in response.

“How could you not wait for me.” Lei Yichen suddenly got down from his horse and carried his steps over.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at him, “Now that even Lei Shi Zi is here, it seems even more lively.”

“There is strength in numbers, let’s all go in and talk about it.” Zhang Zong looked at them, and this worry in his heart was since alleviated.

Once the crowd was inside, the group sat down in the hall.

Niangzi Lu continued, “Now it seems that this skeleton is the Second Lady of the State Duke’s House.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and answered.

“It’s just that this Second Lady didn’t she go seventeen years ago but this corpse is only fifteen years old.” Niangzi Lu looked at Mu Zi Yan and said.

“This is the key.” Mu Zi Yan was silent for a moment, “But back then, I wasn’t there at all, so I’m afraid that only the State Duke’s Office knows about it.”

“Smokey, where do you think we should start investigating this matter” Zhang Zong looked at her and asked.

“Besides this skeleton what else was found” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked at Niangzi Lu and asked.

“You come with me.” Lady Lui said as she looked at her.

“Good.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and replied, then she went to the autopsy room with Niangzi Lu.

She examined the skeleton carefully, and then looked to something that lay not far away, clothes that had rotted out of shape, but were brown, night clothes at first glance.

Other than that there was no other discovery, Niangzi Lu continued, “Since she was injured by a concealed weapon, why would she be buried in the Jingzhao Yin’s government office”

“This is the crux of the matter.” Mu Zi Yan was silent for a moment, “Who was the Capital Zhaoyin at that time”

“Nai is,” Zhang Zong looked at Mu Zi Yan, “Marquis Lei.”

“What,” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes moved slightly as she turned her eyes to look at Lei Yichen, “As I recall, Marquis Lei is the only one who has made it as a Marquis as a Beijing Zhaoyin.”

“Exactly.” Zhang Zong continued, “It was an exception that was made, and the emperor was bent on having his way.”

If Zhang Zong said this in front of others, it will become a talking point to the emperor, but now in front of Mu Zi Yan, since it will not be constrained.

Mu Zi Yan was silent for a moment and turned her eyes to look at Lei Yichen, “It seems that this matter involves a lot.”

“Can’t it be that Smokey suspects that it was my father’s doing” Lei Yi Chen’s brows furrowed as he looked at Mu Zi Yan and asked.

“It’s not impossible.” Mu Zi Yan said bluntly, “It’s just that the people who were involved back then are all gone now, Marquis Lei, Auntie Qiu, and Second Auntie, and the Yin family.”

“But the Qi family is still around.” Lei Yichen said immediately afterward.

“It is in, but there are also hidden killings within the State Duke’s Mansion today.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.

Lei Yichen see Mu Zi Yan so say, since is to understand that this must also involve what, he suddenly felt that the Lei Marquis House was extinguished, for fear of more than just the cool king, the emperor why then insisted on letting his father when this Beijing Zhaoyin it and then his father will be from the Beijing Zhaoyin down, and then did not enter the dynasty, is not there any other reason for here!

It’s not just the map the queen left him, is it?

Mu Zi Yan also thought of this and raised her eyes to look at Lei Yichen, “Lei Shizi, but I can go to Marquis Lei’s mansion to take another look”

“Good.” Lei Yichen nodded in response.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked at them, “Since they’re all here, why don’t they all go, or they can discover something suspicious.”

“En.” The crowd nodded in response, and the group headed to Marquis Lei’s residence.

Lei Yichen is now alone in the Marquis House, and only a few old slaves from within the old mansion from before, but now it seems very cold.

After Mu Zi Yan entered, she also could not help but sigh, as if she thought of her own previous life when she rejoined the Mu Houfu and could not see her relatives when she was miserable.

The two of them looked at each other, and were afraid that the various flavors would only be experienced by each of them.

Lei Houfu was extinguished, although the emperor was furious, ordered a thorough investigation, but in the end it is also unsettled, here in the end hidden what hidden secrets, afraid that only the emperor knows.

In this world, the dead are the safest, so the only way to keep the secret hidden forever is to make sure that the people who knew about it back in the day are not in the dark.

Shut up those who knew back then, then the most effective and safest way to shut up is to die.
